The Railside Railcar Shaker is designed for industries that handle tough, compacted, or moisture-laden bulk materials. Engineered with a high-amplitude, low-frequency vibration system, it effectively breaks rat-holes, reduces bridging, and promotes consistent material flow during railcar unloading.
Manufactured in the USA, this railcar shaker features rugged steel construction and minimal moving parts—delivering years of reliable performance with low maintenance requirements. It is specifically designed for continuous use in industrial environments where downtime is not an option.
The Railside Railcar Shaker is trusted by industries including:
Aggregates & Mining
Chemical & Refining
Grain & Feed
Cement
Power Plants
Fertilizers
Bulk Material Processing
Available in both pneumatic and electric models, the shaker can be easily integrated into existing railcar unloading systems, offering flexibility and ease of installation.
By automating the vibration process, the system eliminates the need for manual pounding or scraping inside railcars. Operators remain safe while unloading times are drastically reduced.
During loading, the shaker enhances:
Geometric alignment of particles
Reduction of angle of repose
De-aeration of materials
This ensures that each railcar achieves its maximum payload capacity, reducing transportation costs.
With faster unloading, increased load density, and reduced manual labor, the Railside Railcar Shaker enhances productivity and lowers overall material handling costs for plants of any size.
Railside Railcar Shaker is used to unload bulk materials from hopper railcars by applying controlled vibration that breaks material bridging and ensures smooth material flow.
It handles a wide range of tough materials including aggregates, DDG, grain, coal, cement, sugar, chemicals, and other bulk solids that commonly stick inside railcars.
Yes. The high-amplitude vibration dramatically reduces unloading time by eliminating rat-holes and compacted buildup, allowing material to flow freely and consistently.
Absolutely. It removes the need for workers to enter railcars or use sledgehammers, making the unloading process significantly safer and more efficient.
Yes. The shaker is available in both pneumatic and electric drive options, allowing easy integration into any railcar unloading setup.
